Till I am Lost in You

Till I am lost in you I will n’er be found

But in the finding there is life beyond my blighted bounds

Utterly dependent, totally subsumed

You give me life abundant for a  life lived in  a tomb.

I heard my name though I was deaf I saw with eyes that were blind

A resurrection beyond death A symphony, a light divine

That raises men up from their graves, and sees sin put to death

To hope of glory we are saved, to breathe immortal breath

To live and move and have our being

Within this light that I am seeing

For without Him  there’s nothing I can do

To gain real life that  makes me new

No there’s nothing I can do

Till I am lost in You

In Him through Him and to Him  All things in Him consist

So worship now is due Him   for In Christ I now exist

For Christ the King abides within  the heart that He has entered in

To transform clay until the day  We are found solely in Him.

To live and move and have our being

Within this light that we are seeing

For without Him  there’s nothing we can do

To gain real life or be made new

No there’s nothing we can do

Till we are lost in You
